Pros

Great brands to work on and the people hands down make the company. The atmosphere is more relaxed than most corporate companies.

Cons

Low paying, management heavy company lacking vision. Management blows smoke about things improving and people getting promoted but that never happens. This once amazing company has been bogged down by politics instead of focusing on the great brands and building up the true hardworking people.

I used to love it here.

Pros

Vending machine sodas still only cost a quarter.

Cons

Senior management solutions to just about everything typically involve creating additional and unnecessary management layers, scheduling endless meetings in which very little actually gets done, and/or giving powerpoint presentations in which jokes are all too often more plentiful than actionable ideas. On those occasions that meetings result in meaningful discussion and good ideas, almost never any follow through. Far too many folks just going through the motions day-to-day. People here used to be so passionate! Antiquated systems for expense reports, PTO requests etc.
